Artificial Leaf - A reliable source of energy.

watch video

We all know that leaves are the parts of the tree that gives the required energy for the growth by using the process of Photosynthesis. In the process of photosynthesis, leaves take in the sunlight, water and carbon dioxide and produces glucose and releases all important oxygen into the atmosphere. This is how the leaves harness solar energy and convert them into the energy required for its growth. In 2011 researchers at MIT developed an artificial leaf technology to convert the solar energy into the useful form that can power our present day generators. These are a boon in the areas which lack electrical transmission infrastructure where these can be used to generate the power with the help of abundant sunlight and water.

Consider a situation where you need to attend a very important meeting and you forgot to charge your all important tablet PC (Without which you are dummy,pun intended ) last night and you have a very little time to reach the meeting place crossing the irritating traffic hurdle,what will you do? Hopeless?? Not any more!!! These kind of situations are quite common and we abuse ourselves for our negligence. A California based teenager's project in INTEL International Engineering and Science FAIR 2K13 addressed this problem and grabbed so much of attention in the technical fraternity.
Eesha Khare, an 18year old teen of Lynbrook high school ,Saratoga, calif has developed a super capacitor that can charge your phone with in a span of mere 20-30 seconds. Puzzled!!!!

An attempt to repair damaged heart !!!!!

Heart is the vital part of Human body. This is the first line that you come across if you read any article or an essay about Human heart. It is the chief organ which pumps the all important blood to all parts of the body and thereby supplying oxygen to other organs through blood and ensures proper functioning of the body. If there is any problem associated with the heart the pumping activity is affected and thereby supply of oxygen for several parts will be disturbed and leads to the death of the human cells and ultimately the victim. This kind of situation is popularly known as Heart attack or a Heat stroke. It is one of the serious problem that the world is confronting and this is the reason for majority of deaths in the world. A health survey estimated that by 2030 around 23 million people every year will be losing their lives only because of heart disorder. So this is one of the challenging task posed by the nature to address the problem of Heart failures. Several techniques were developed, tested and implemented and some of them are still in the labs testing for the next fraction of accuracy but nature seems to be the ultimate winner. This article focuses on the  latest on going and efficient techniques to fight this problem.

The above line seems to be ridiculous because the LCD and touch screens work on two different principles. But nothing is impossible in the world where these  crazy engineers turn impossible tasks possible. Same is the case with the above line also. 
    Researchers at the University of Washington’s aptly named Ubiquitous Computing Lab can turn any LCD monitor in your house into a touchscreen, with nothing more than a $5 sensor that plugs into the wall and some intelligent software. They named the technology as UTOUCH  which works by the Electromagnetic interference(EMI) caused by your hand when it moves near or touches an LCD monitor.
